When lesions were present on both scintiphotos and roentgenograms, involvement generally appeared greater on the scintiphotos. Two false negative studies were recorded. Sixty-seven percent of patients with early metastasis-that is, those with positive scintiphotos and negative roentgenograms-were asymptomatic.
